After working for many years as an attorney in New York and Los Angeles, Tonya Plank returned to Southern Arizona, where she grew up. A former amateur ballroom dancer, she wrote the dance blog, "Swan Lake Samba Girl." Her first novel, Swallow, won several awards, including gold medals in the Independent Publisher and the Living Now Book Awards, and was a finalist in ForeWord's Book of the Year and the National Indie Excellence Awards. When she's not hard at work on her next dance romance, she enjoys taking road trips with her rescue dog, Sofia, devouring Mexican food and Cadillac margaritas, cuddling up with her cats and a good book, and watching dance performances of any kind.
